On this basis, I’d say this past year was a rip-roaring success. Those times I grabbed a paint brush were about as relaxing as things could be. So, without further ado, time for me to cruise through my camera roll and see what I got done.

Firstly, a pair of cool operators, assassins both. One subtle, the other sly.

Then I wrapped up a group of 10 mooks, given to a colleague for a Secret Santa gift.

Then a pair of ripper bases – I suppose I need a third to round out a unit, but these little ankle biters were a good change in pace.

Carried that momentum into 6 Wyrdvane Psykers (who may never see the tabletop ever, but at least they’re done).

Which kind of takes us into May/June… I had started all kinds of projects in that month, buoyed by my productivity and apparent ‘free’ time.

And then this happened:

Known as “Leviathan” online, he was born mid-June, and adopted enthusiastically into our home. Everything changed, and yet all things were the same. Suffice to say it’s amazing what you can do when you’re sleep deprived.

Then my Christmas present to my Dark Angel bro, left over from last year and finally deemed ‘good enough to gift’

Finished painting a cap for a long time buddy of mine. He hasn’t had much time to hobby since joining the Canadian Forces but he likes his Dark Angel successor chapter all the same. pic.twitter.com/b0Tu31B2w7
